Cannot remember but I think Hedmann or Hooker makes C body headers,too. B body will not fit. Steering column interference. '68 Newport Custom Barge on a Budget!!

Canadian ones are all I really have any familiarity with and I do know they could have the smaller engines but in the US none were ever made with either an LA or /6, all were either B or RB. So that makes the market a pretty small one. Mike

I think the earlier poster forgot about the Poly A, which has a nearly identical block to an LA, and hence same motormounts as a 318LA. The 65 C also has a goofy driverside motormount, and that might be the rason why Schumacher has no listing for it, smallblock 65s won't lead to a lot of sales. Parts I seek: driver doorpanel, 65 Sport Fury, prefer black, needs to be 7-8 on 10 scale, might buy set 16" x 6" Dodge truck wheel(s), from early 70s?, takes 9" dogdish - need for a research job so cheaper is better. 69-73 C-body caliper brackets and/or splashields Send a PM.
